I just bought the pre-filled EZ ink cartridges and use a 
syringe/needle that I got from my local druggist for 
refilling.  I believe it's a 30cc syringe, but the carts 
hold much less than this.  I inject the ink through the 
rubber stopper on the factory carts.

One bottle of Eboni ink, and a bottle of either EZN or EZW 
(any position - the CMY inks are the same).

A set of cartridges - either pre-filled, or the new clear 
empties.  You'll need one for each position...the chips are 
different, even though the inks may be the same.

I've not yet tried the clear easy-refill carts, but will 
probably order a set of these with my next order.  I think 
Paul says to use a bottom-fill adapter if you use these 
carts, but I'm not sure.   

You'll also need a chip resetter.  

That should just about do it...

HTH,

Lee
